It looks like there could be a 'Game of Thrones' spin-off movie, but 'The Winds of Winter' author George R.R. Martin will not be involved in the making of the film.
According to Daily Star, a source has revealed that the writer may have decided not to work on the 'Game of Thrones' movie to catch up on 'The Winds of Winter' release date.
"There will be a movie but I will not be involved," Martin had said. "I have too much to do. That is something HBO and the DB and David are dealing with. I have two more books to finish and I still have so much to do."
The author also admitted that he cares about his book readers, who have been waiting patiently for 'The Winds of Winter' release date.
"The pressure is on," Martin had said. "I am such a slow writer and the fans get upset that I don't write faster."
However, this doesn't help new rumors emerging that the 'Winds of Winter' release date will be delayed, which means that the new season of 'Game of Thrones' might actually air before the sixth 'A Song of Ice and Fire' book is published.
But what will happen in the possible 'Game of Thrones' movie? A source claims that the film will revisit events that happened in the past.
"With the 'Game of Thrones' universe there is much rich material and no constraints on when that story will take place," the source told Daily Star. "They are looking at dipping back in time during certain periods of the series, which could be examined as a one off plot. That means that some of the big characters who fans have seen die on screen could be resurrected such as Robb Stark, Catelyn Stark, Oberyn Martell the Red Viper - and Ned Stark."
There is no word yet on when the 'Game of Thrones' movie will start production. Meanwhile, 'The Winds of Winter' release date is still set for spring next year.
